I added a new flower patch tonight! It is supposed to be bullion stitch on the diagonal lines. I put in six, took them out. I put in five more, took them out! I was using four strands and fighting with it all the way. I sat back, put that fiber aside, and picked up the Kreinik #8, 041. I used two strands and made the four sided shapes using that. Then, using four strands of Silk Mori 624, I made the crossed stitches that were called for. I like it. Some days are not bullion days and this was mine!Wednesday, January 21, 2009

Hi Pat,
Very pretty! I'm enjoying watching you work on this project. I hope to start mine this weekend.
I had fun catching up on all of your recent posts tonight. :-)
Love the slideshow!
